Asamoah Gyan is back to his predatory best after scoring for Al Ain in their thumping 4-1 win over Al Sharjah at the at the Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium on Thursday evening.
The Ghanaian international opened the scoring in the 50th minute after heading in a corner kick by Mohammed Abdulrahman, who looked at ease in midfield in his namesake's absence.
Miroslav Stoch and Lee Myung-joo also scored, as did Jires Kembo-Ekoko. The latter came on for Diaky Ibrahim, who has grown into the role of support striker.
Wanderley's 57th-minute equaliser for Sharjah - a 30-yard rocket bound for the end-of-season highlight reel - ended up being a spectacular consolation.
Al Ain top the table with a game in hand, though Jazira can overhaul them should they beat Al Wasl on Friday.
